Money is the nerve of war in Avarius. It determines beings, whether old or young, rich or unspent, avarous or prodigal, and sinsinine at the heart of human relations. This great comedy created in 1668 staged a universe where everything is only contracts, and where everything has a price: eating, drinking, dressing, loving, not dying; a world where filial feelings are undermined by the pathological vice of a man who is not only greedy, but also covetous and paranoid. And the vice will have the last word. L的Avare, moral piece? The question deserves to be asked.
